Loud Anarchist Talk.

A combined meeting of anarchists and
socialists was held in London last Satur-
day night to protest against the execution
of the Chicago anarchists. VIM. Morris,
the poet, presided. In his speech he said
that the Chicago cases showed him how
soon the veneer of civilization over mere
brutality was removed and the human
beast exposed. A man named Bartlett,
of the socialistic league, moved resolu-
tion protesting against the sentences pass
ed upon the Chicago anarchists. He was
supported by several speakers. One,
named Seymour, said "Every anarchist
at the Chicago meeting ought to have
thrown bomb at the police. and he
hoped all would do so if the sentences
were carried out If he were brought
before Judge Gary he would consider it
his proudest duty to rid the world of such
a william The resolution was carried.

The London Poor.

A London special of the 9Th inst. says:
Two hundred of poor, homeless and un-
employed persons who sleep at night at
Trafalgar square to-day paraded in body
through the principal streets in the West
End. They carried black banner bear
ing the inscription tive will have work or
bread" A large police force accompan-
led the procession which eventually re-
turned to Trafalgar square, and, with the
followers attracted, held meeting. The
orators who addressed the assemblage de-
scribed the hardships of the lot of those
whose only resting place in London at
night was public square, and declared
the only means they had of drawing the
attention of the public to their conditi-
ton was by such demonstrations as they
had just made. The meeting adopted
resolution to reassemble in the same place
next Monday and continue the parade
daily until relief was affoiGo,..

The Tennessee Central.

On the application Of number Of
prominent capitalists, the county
court last Monday adopted PROPOSE.
tion to give the county tax of new
railroad for twenty years to the towns
Of Milan and Trenton, provided they
would issue bonds in aid Of the road
sufficient to secure its completion
through this county. 1t is understood
that the idea is to complete the Ten.
nessee Central road through the
county from Milan via Trenton to
Newbern, on the CO. d s. W. road,
and that the line will probably be eI-
tended from here to Florence, Ala.
When we get into the merits of the
matter, we shall have more to say on
the subject. At irst sight, it appears
to he good move to finish this road.
and we hspe that the proposition will
turn out to be fair to all concerned.
We hope some one who thoroughly
understands the matter will write us
communication for our next issue,
so that oar people may consider il
impartially. We have liberal peO
pie, aud they will cheerfully do al
they are able to hmld the road.
